Yeah .. it's now been "contracted" down to "Roe" -- and I so wish SOMEone in SOME setting, in response to that, would just say: "Roe? Oh, you mean the Roe vs. Wade case regarding the desire of irresponsible women to kill babies in utero for their convenience?"

Speaking of that, there was the MOST vile doctor on Nightline being questioned about performing abortions, and he was so proud and about gleeful at the good he's done .. that it was just a form of birth control, and that adoption makes too many women depressed .. even to the point of suicide, as one of his patients did a couple of years ago. He was in his late 60's, early 70's. Can you imagine such a subhuman and the thousands of precious innocents he's killed?? I've never felt such instant revulsion and loathing for a stranger in my life.

ooooh. Cornyn uses the DEM objection to the testimony of these judges as an indicator that the DEMs have lowered the decorum and honesty of the hearings process.

Sessions is asking whether or not throwing rocks at people is a federal crime.

LMAO.

That was the capstone of his oration, in my opinion.

Sessions is awesome!

:)

They're just scoring points with their base.

Just called my Senators offices (Snowe and Collins unfortunately) Told both staffers that they ought to vote for Alito and inquired where they currently stood. The staffers said they hadnt made up their minds yet.
As Snowe is up for reelection, I informed her staffer that without her vote for Altio, she (Snowe) could forget mine.

if the witnesses opposed Alito, they'd all be there making "points". But since the battle is all but lost, they need to plan out a final assault, which, by all accounts, will be a fillibuster.

My point (and I do have one...) is that an overly cautious judge, who is more process oriented than determined to vindicate the text of the Const, is likely to lose his way in the twisted "precedent" that has accumulated like drain sludge in the past 40 years.

Durbin and Leahy and staging a sort of "Idiots Protest" of the sitting judges on the panel.

Do they really think that these people testifying for Alito would garner them some "favor" with him as a Supreme Court Justice whereas a relationship of up to 30 years would not????

Disgraceful conduct on the part of nearly all of them.

What else did you expect from Dims? It's not like this testimony is going to change any of their minds, and the only important thing to them is to show their contempt for the witnesses and the nominee by refusing to sit in and listen.

His wife-the second one, if I'm not mistaken-saved him, unfortunately.

If you look at stills or video coverage from his victory party in 1994 you can see that he's on his last legs.

I'm amazed that cirrhotic, bloviating, manslaughtering POS has been able to stagger on for this length of time.

Over a decade, for goodness sake!

Joe Kennedy must have made some pact with Lucifer back in the good old days when Hitler was riding high.

Cornyn just slammed Leahy and Durbin.

Too bad none of 'em hung around to hear it...looks to me like cocktail hour has arrived and most of them have bailed out - so much for their "grave concern".

But the 'Rats won't have to worry if any of them appeal a case to SCOTUS, because Americans whose forefathers hail from the sunny penisula don't get upset if they are treated badly --- BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Paybacks are a Hillary!
